Welcome to Driving Miss Daisy Ferrymead My name is Vickie and I own the Driving Miss Daisy franchise for the Ferrymead and Cashmere areas.

Whether you need assistance to attend medical appointments, the hairdressers, shopping or want to maintain and enjoy your independence in the community, I can help. My service includes driving you to your destination, walking you inside and picking you up again; there’s no need to worry about parking. I can stay with you at an appointment, help with supermarket shopping including carrying your bags inside and put the kettle on for a cuppa if you would like. Driving Miss Daisy is a personalised companion driving service and I take pride in looking after you and your requirements whether visiting friends, a scenic drive, going out to the movies or for coffee; the choice is yours.

Before joining Miss Daisy I was an activities co-ordinator in a rest home working with dementia and rest home residents. More recently I ran the Rest Home Programme for the Hearing Association Christchurch looking after residents’ hearing aids, and making sure everyone’s hearing requirements were taken care of. I am a wife and mother with two grown-up children and I enjoy spending time with people of all ages. My aim is to provide a caring, friendly and helpful service that keeps you independent and allows you the freedom to do what you want, when you want and brighten your day in the process.

Driving Miss Daisy is a pre-booked, pre-quoted service and you will always know how much your outing is going to cost beforehand. Driving Miss Daisy is an ACC accredited provider and we also accept TMS (Total Mobility Service) vouchers which makes our service even more affordable.

Call me today on 03 423 9778 or 021 950 959 and let me know your requirements, I look forward to talking to you about how I can help.
